Dear Dr. Cohen:
     I  can understand your distress at the NPR reporting.  Objecting as 
a scientist  carries a committment to be accurate as to facts.
Your allegation that tens of thousands of deaths are due to fossil fueled
power stations is not supported by factual data, nor would it be agreed 
to by most environmental epidemiologists.  However, this latter is 
my opinion,  and not a fact.
